My 1,000th post....and my first giveaway!

ClaireSaturday, February 18, 2012

One THOUSAND posts. 1,000 times where I've sat down and shared something....moments of sorrow, joy, reflection, hope and wondering. I've made some amazing friends through blogging, I've had some great times because of blogging and have learned so much about myself through this experience too. I'm so glad I started blogging in the first place, and so unbelievably grateful I get to continue to do so!

Thank you to all of you who read, comment and email. Inasmuch as this blog is for me as a record of my life and adventures, it's lovely to feel connected, and to have you along on the journey is both a pleasure and a privelege!

I was having a wee ponder on how to mark this occasion. A party? A song (Scarlet, I genuinely considered this, I know how you love a karaoke moment...)? A poem? All were tempting, but ultimately tricky to pull off. So instead, I am going to do my first ever giveaway!

A PARCEL O' FUN!

As I adore post and mail, it seemed only fitting to include this love in the giveaway!

The one lucky winner of this giveaway will receive a package in the mail filled with some of my favourite things - music, a DVD, a book, and myriad treats! I was going to make a pre-made package, but as my tastes are eclectic I will wait until the winner is selected to tailor make a parcel which I think they will enjoy, full of good things - movies, fun and candy, oh mys!

This giveaway will end at 9 p.m. GMT on Saturday, February 25th. I will then make up a parcel for the winner and mail it to them by Friday, March 9th at the latest. Bonne Chance, lovelies!
